Pope Leo XIV’s Palm Sunday message is a moral lighthouse in a violent age. In St. Peter’s Square he made clear that God cannot be wielded as a weapon to justify war, declaring Jesus the “King of Peace” and rejecting religious rationales for the U.S.–Israel war on Iran.
At a time when some U.S. leaders invoke Christianity to sanction military might, the Pope’s words remind us that true faith calls for peace, not bloodshed. As Christians around the world prepare for Easter, we should embrace his urgent plea for dialogue, ceasefires, and compassion for all who suffer.
